Automate GitHub runner labels via webhook

Your CI/CD pipeline detects a new GPU-equipped runner online, and sends a webhook to Notis, which automatically tags it 'gpu-runner'—no manual runner administration.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add org runner labels

Adds new custom labels to an existing self-hosted runner for an organization; existing labels are not removed, and duplicates are not added.

Why this helps

You spin up new self-hosted runners (GPU machines, high-memory boxes), but keep forgetting to label them in GitHub. Developers pick the wrong runners and jobs fail or run slowly.

  • Runners get labeled automatically as they come online
  • No manual GitHub interface visits to manage your runner fleet
  • Developers always pick the right runner for their job type

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub to Notis via the portal.
  • 2Ask Notis: 'When you receive a webhook with runner info, label that GitHub org runner accordingly' or use the portal builder.
  • 3Select 'Notis Webhook' as your trigger—Notis generates a webhook URL.
  • 4Point your CI/CD pipeline to that URL with runner specs in the payload (type, resources, etc.).
  • 5Test by sending a webhook with runner details and confirming the label appears in GitHub.

Questions about this workflow

What should my runner webhook payload include?

Send the runner ID or name, plus labels you want added (e.g., {"runner_id": 123, "labels": ["gpu", "high-memory"]}).

Can I remove labels via webhook too?

Yes. Tell Notis: 'If the webhook includes a 'remove_labels' field, clear those labels from the runner.'

Does this work for repository-level runners too?

Yes. Specify in your prompt whether you're managing organization or repository runners.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Airtable to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Airtable triggers

GitHub actions

Base Metadata Changed

Triggers when an existing Airtable base changes its name or permission level.

TriggerPolling

Accept a repository invitation

Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.

ActionInstant

Base Schema Changed

Triggers when tables, fields, or views change in an Airtable base.

TriggerPolling

List repositories starred by the authenticated user

Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.

ActionInstant

User Profile Changed

Triggers when the connected Airtable user's profile information changes.

TriggerPolling

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

View Created

Triggers when a new view is created in an Airtable base.

TriggerPolling

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

ActionInstant

View Deleted

Triggers when a previously known Airtable view is deleted.

TriggerPolling

Add email for auth user

Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.

ActionInstant

View Metadata Changed

Triggers when an Airtable view changes its name or type.

TriggerPolling

Add app access restrictions

Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.

ActionInstant

Add a repository collaborator

Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.

ActionInstant

Add a repository to an app installation

Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Not just Airtable and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
